| Control | 30 | 40.2 (±15.5) | 15/15 | N/A | N/A | N/A |
| TBI all | 33 | 39.7 (±17.87) | 3/30 | 56.9 | 101.9 | 6.87 (±4.75) |

N = number, SD = Standard deviation, TBI = Traumatic Brain Injury, FIMenter/FIMleave = Functional Independence Measure (clinical assessment at the beginning (FIMenter) and around the end of (FIMleave) the hospitalization). The severity level (Mild, Moderate, and Severe) was determined by the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS).
